Description

The voip assign command creates a configuration file for the specified card. The required parameters are card, ip, and gkip. All parameter values are validated against the allowable parameter values. After a successful validation, all parameters are saved in a configuration file, which is associated with the administered card.

The voip assign command exits with an error message and the usage statement under the following circumstances:

The voip change command changes the specified configuration file parameter values for the specified card and creates a backup configuration file. If the configuration file does not exist, or any parameter value failed the field validation, the change command exits with an error message and the usage statement.

The voip display command with the card parameter displays the associated configuration file parameters for the specified card. If the configuration file does not exist, the display command exits with an error message and the usage statement.

The voip unassign command deletes the configuration file, and the backup configuration file, if any, for the specified card.

The voip display assignments command displays all the administered cards.

After the successful execution of voip assign, voip change, and voip unassign commands, an informational message is displayed telling you to stop and restart the voice system to activate the configuration file change.
